    Ugh! Stupid young rooster...

    Great idea!! I use a plant sprayer on my cats - works like a charm. Now I'll make it a multi-animal sprayer.

    Buddies with a whale... (OK, technically a really big dolphin)

    Oh, that's amazing. :) I love hearing these stories. I work as an animal behaviorist and have spent a lot of my life working with seals and sea lions, in particular in rescue of the same. I find their personalities fascinating. Seals, while much shyer and less communal than sea lions...

    H5N2

    That's so cruel. Cattle, as individuals, are very clean animals. Such a horrible way to treat them. And there's no reason for it.

    H5N2

    I have been in a commercial chicken facility. A few years ago. I stopped eating chicken and store bought eggs that day. It was very traumatic. Those birds suffer, and in my opinion, needlessly. Movies such as "Resistance" bring this to the forefront.

    Why do people choose to be vegans?

    My main reason is, like many here, against the horrid treatment that our meat animals go through their whole lives before they are cruelly slaughtered. The secondary reason is I've been vegetarian for most of my teen and adult life. My mother decided to become vegetarian, so, being as she was...

    Where Do YOU Get/Rescue Battery Hens From?

    Roostersandhens: Turlock is being released as a documentary movie. I believe a limited release only but......probably we'll be able to purchase it sometime in the future. I love what you're doing....rescuing those poor gentle girls. I work in the animal shelter field and we've had hens...

    Chickens who HATE snow?

    Wow!! That's what mine do. I've covered their coop so they can use the run, but the temps here in January broke records from over 100 years ago (I live in NYC - Brooklyn to be exact) so I took them inside into the basement to the "emergency shelter". They HATE that shelter, but when I went to...
